Brian Batell (University of Pittsburgh)

Description

Accelerator experiments, both collider and fixed-target, play a pivotal role in probing the dark sector and uncovering the nature of dark matter. This talk will provide an overview of current efforts and future plans in utilizing accelerators to explore a wide range of dark matter candidates, from WIMPs to light dark sector particles. The synergy and complementarity between accelerator experiments and other experimental and observational approaches will be highlighted.
